Publisher's Synopsis
Most admissions advice books will tell you that there is no secret formula or magic recipe to get you in to the college of your choice. They are wrong. Those books will tell you to work hard on the SATs and become captain/president/manager of every club and sport you can. They will have you throw everything you have at the admissions committee hoping something will stick. That's sloppy and ineffective. In "Just One Degree", I will take you through the process of knowing what will show the admissions committees your true potential. We will work together to put together an irresistible application that is perfect for you. I won't waste your time with unnecessary backstories, studies, and data. Our goal is not to make you an expert on college admissions; that's my job. Our goal is to make sure we melt the ice with that one extra degree. -Advice on how to make the most of high school -Letter to Parents -FAQs from around the web -Breakdown of common essay questions -Comprehensive Glossary of Terms -Timeline for all four years of high school -Checklist for your application -List of Popular Extracurricular Activities -Common App based Index -Worksheet to help you keep track of important information
